Elton John – A Step Too Far lyrics
It's so strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs
Almost formal, too respectful, never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking, always half a step behind
Always half a step behind

O ho
O ho
O ho

I'm in every kind of trouble, can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic, half dejected, all in all I'm all at sea
Easy terms I thought I wanted, fill me now with chilling dread
You can never know the chaos, of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head

O ho
O ho
O ho
O ho

I am certain that I love him, but a love can be misplaced
Have I compromised my people in my passion and my haste
I could be his life companion anywhere but where we are
Am I leader? Am I traitor? Did I take a step too far?
Did I take a step too far?

It's so strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs
Almost formal, too respectful, never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking, always half a step behind
Always half a step behind

I'm in every kind of trouble, can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic, half dejected, all in all I'm all at sea
Easy terms I thought I wanted, fill me now with chilling dread
You can never know the chaos, of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head

I am certain that I love him, but a love can be misplaced
Have I compromised my people in my passion and my haste
I could be his life companion anywhere but where we are
Am I leader? Am I traitor? Did I take a step too far?
Did I take a step too far?

O ho
O ho
O ho
O ho

O ho
O ho
O ho

Did I take a step too far?
